Internship with Lors Photography...need more interns.

It seems that some of Rutgers students never got this email about a internship with Lors Photography. I just got the internship with them but they notified me that they need at least 3-5+ more people. They are very flexible and will work around your schedule. They are very eager to have enthusiastic students to help them with projects and learn how they run the studio and outside the studio. They special in portrait photography from kids to college graduates. They most likely took your kindergarten through high school senior photos, they are very big. It will look great on your resume (for those whom may have nothing yet) that you have experience as a photographer and in the business aspect too. Please feel free to check out the email and pass it along to anyone who may also be interested.
